Ariel Sharon And The Anti-Christ

Published: February 1, 2013
Q

I know you are careful about engaging in antichrist speculation but I am very curious as to how Ariel Sharon fairs as a possible candidate . This so called “Lion of God” has been in a coma after a massive stroke for 7 years and is now showing significant brain activity. What if he wakes up but with limited use of his right side?


Who Is The Assyrian?

Published: January 29, 2013
Q

I have read from another end times scholar who says the Assyrian from Isaiah 14:25-27 is the same person as the man of sin in 2 Thessalonians 2:4, and that this is the person that stands in the temple and causes the abomination of desolation. He further states that there will be three people in the end, the Assyrian, the Anti-Christ, and the False Prophet. I have never heard this before and was quite surprised by it as I don’t see this when I study this out. Can you explain it?


Judging Miracles

Published: January 26, 2013
Q

I’m watching pastors and people I have gone to church with in the past 4 years turn more and more to signs and wonders and human effort but now I realize that they’ve been lead away from the Blood of the Lamb toward the “man as god” scenario. Please tell me what you think about all this. How do I explain that I can’t participate with this because I strongly feel that the Holy Spirit is telling me to depart from them?

When are the believers who live through the Millennium resurrected?


The Meaning Of The Millennium. Follow Up

Published: January 24, 2013
Q

Re: The Meaning of the Millennium. If the earth is re-populated only with believers after the 2nd Coming, and if believers can’t loose their salvation, then how can the 1000 years be a final test for mankind? In fact, what you are saying is that some will sink so low, they actually will loose their salvation and go to battle against The Lord. Would a believer do that – and can believers do that?


More On The Destruction Of Babylon

Published: January 23, 2013
Q

Please help me to understand something about the future Babylon in Rev 18. 17-18 ; if Babylon is to be rebuilt on the plains of Shinar, then the phrase “And every ship master, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off” suggests a port city, a port by the sea in fact – how can this be? The plains of Shinar are nowhere close to the sea, or visible from the sea. What gives?


1967 And The End Times Generation

Published: January 22, 2013
Q

I heard another prophecy teacher say that the key to the end times is Jerusalem, based on Psalm 102:15-16 and Luke 21:24. Therefore, the end times generation would begin in 1967, not 1948. Please comment.


Aren’t The Goats Gentiles?

Q

In one of your articles you stated that the lost sheep not of this fold were Gentiles. But are not the Gentiles referred to as goats?


Was Israel God’s First Born Son?

Published: January 18, 2013
Q

I have a question about Exodus 4:22-23: Then say to Pharoah, ‘This is what the Lord says: Israel is my firstborn son, and I told you, “Let my son go, so he may worship me.” But you refused to let him go; so I will kill your firstborn son.’ ” This verse says that Israel was God’s firstborn son. Does this differ from the claim Jesus made in John 3:16? “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” God only has one son so how could Israel be his firstborn son?


Do We Have Little Strength?

Published: January 16, 2013
Q

I agree with your interpretation of Romans 11:25 that the timing of the rapture is based on a number instead of a specific date. If so, do you see the big push for promotion and acceptance of the homosexual lifestyle, as well as abortion on demand to be a final “big push” of the enemy (Satan) to try and delay reaching the number? And is the twisting freedom of speech laws to try and stop Christians from sharing the gospel a sign that the church has “little strength” as the Lord said in Rev. 3:8? That our influence is being diminished, making the great commission more and more difficult?
